Are you working by yourself or in a team?
I'm working by myself.
What materials will you need for your project?
I will need an iPad, copyright-free images, and a microphone.
What is your plan to create in this project?
My plan is to make a video with free images and audio of me explaining why I wear a tie every day.
What unique qualities will your project have?
It will be about something that I see very rarely around me making it quite an original view.
I created my website and then worked on planning my video project.
I began making the video with free images and audio.
I began to add titles, background noises, and transitions.
I continued work from the previous day. Adding more titles and sound effects.
I recorded the voice over for the video detailing the reasons why I wear ties.
I published the video on this website. (you can click the link below)
Using iMovie, Ipad, internet images, and a microphone, I created a video about my habit of wearing ties because it is something frequently inquire about.
During this process, I learned how to use iMovie to make videos with free sound effects and images.
The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Empowered Learner. This is because Empowered Learners use the technology around them to help them reach those goals by demonstrating their abilities to use and troubleshoot the technologies of their choice. I did this in my project by using the iMovie application to make a video about why I wear ties every day.
A challenge I overcame on this project was figuring out how to manipulate things like audio and titles. I was able to do it by investigating the controls of the application.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the number of sound effects so there are more in the video. The reason why I would change it is that the video only includes about three sound effects so for the most part it seems quite quiet.
